Toronto Raptors vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction

The Oklahoma City Thunder are the best bet in the NBA with a cover percentage of 69.5 percent, so I wouldn’t talk you off the edge if looking to back them here. The Thunder have also covered 12 of their last 17 games as a double-digit favorite. The Toronto Raptors have just four road wins on the season and made some trades at the deadline which could have them short roster-wise for this one. I get it. However, you just don’t see a near 20-point line often in the NBA, and I have a hard time bringing myself to get involved with that sort of number. This will be the third time since 1997 that the Thunder are favorites of 18 or more points. It just doesn’t happen regularly, folks. The Raptors are 6-3 SU and ATS in their last nine games. Give me the Raptors and the points if forced to pick.
